Coconut delight


This delightful small things are actually made as a a low-carb sweet. Even though I make all this sweet cakes i like to stay away from carbs as much as possible. But sometimes it is just not possible . So this Coconut truffles are a substitute for my favourite chocolate,  Bounty.

Michaels dream cookies

The recipe for these cookies I got from my Danish friend Michael . They where really easy and quick to make and  tasted delicious. The only problem with them was the recipe, though Norwegian language is very close to Danish language there is a lot of difference i came to know reading this recipe. So I couldn't really manage to understand how they where suppose to look so they ended up like this. Not to bad I must say. These cookies are filled with raspberry jam, but it possible to fill them with any jam. I will make them again for sure, they are absolutely lovely. So thank you Michael for the recipe for these lovely Raspberry filled cookies :) You will find the recipe on The recipe.

Testing Testing!


I am very fond of testing out new recipes and tastes. So this is one of my testing projects. I have for a long time seen  Whoopie pie recipes all over the net, and i have wanted to make them for a long time now. So finally i made them :) Another thing i have wondered how was tasting was Marshmallow Fluff . So i finally made that to. And  i have had this flavored oils  for some time and i haven't manage to try all of them out. So i off course had to try them as well.  So i made whoopie pies filled with  flavored marshmallow fluff. To be totaly honest i don't think i will make them again, they became so   sweet i really thought i got diabetes there and then. When i use American recipes i normally use less sugar, in these ones i did as well but still the became really sweet. Might be they would be better with a fresher filling. But still i manage to test out all the things i have wanted for a long time so i am still happy. The oils i tested  was banana flavor - very tasty,coconut flavor-my favorite, tutti frutti flavor- very children friendly,raspberry flavor- fresh and nice and cheese cake flavor- soft and round taste. I have also tested pistachio flavor- also one of my favorites,chocolate flavor- not tasty at all and orange flavor- fresh and nice taste.

Profiteroles


Profiteroles is a mouthful of deliciousness! And the best part is that is so easy to make. I know people might have a few problems when they bake them, but as long as you don't open the oven door before they are ready they turn out nice  and fluffy. These ones i filled with a caramel cream, but you can make any cream you like. I recently made some that i filled with blueberry cream and some filled with apricots cream.

Snowmen




In Norway for Christmas you are suppose to have at least 7 types of cookies, the cookies we normally make we only make at Christmas time. Somehow Norwegian Christmas is full of (strange) traditions , a mix of  christian  traditions and  traditions from before christian time. If one can manage not to stress to much Norwegian Christmas can be the best time of the year. But unfortunately people goes a bit mad at this time and forget to enjoy all the good things that the Christmas brings. This December was kind of busy for me, i have been traveling so much the last month so  when Christmas finally came it came as a shock. The only cookies i manage to make for Christmas this year was this melted snowmen cookies. They brought a lot of joy so hopefully nobody noticed that they where the only ones on the table. They are made of Sugar cookies with royal icing and melted marshmallow as a head.
